@w7voa Always interesting how local crime becomes national news when it fits a political narrative 🙄
@mishi I was on the ground in Florida protesting the police myself. And maybe I'm not as magnanimous as you, but I can't forgive your ignorant assumptions. Talking to people that way only serves to harm the cause you claim to support. So take your condescension and shove it.
The “virtuous choice” narrative that we would transition to a carbon free economy and solve the climate crisis if only people weren’t so selfish is not helpful and, I think ultimately damaging. 1/
@QueerInTheCountry I disagree. Using hyperbolic or subjective language in reporting makes many people take it *less* seriously, not more. The job of the news is to present facts and let us draw our own conclusions, not to push the conclusions on us.
@QueerInTheCountry Because they are. The word "protest" doesn't have an inherent positive connotation. Assholes can protest equality just as a toddler can protest eating vegetables.
@Baley That sounds fantastic.
@kegill Indeed, but integration into the classroom implies usage.
@kegill Discussion is a whole different animal from integration. We should absolutely be discussing them; on that we agree.
@kegill Depends on the application. I'd really like to see the tech have a little more time to mature before integrating it too heavily into our lives.
I really don't understand the appeal of #Lua, but that goes double in the context of #GameDev. Give me a clear, strongly-typed compiler error over a JIT mumbo jumbo error any day.
Although, I guess that means my issue is less with Lua and more with using scripting languages in general for GameDev. It just feels dirty, and unsafe, and takes twice as long to debug.
